Regarding the wheel bolts, Im pretty sure that you will need tapered bolts for those wheels, most aftermarket wheels require tapered bolts.

Deffo tapered bolts.
Cheers Andy, riffled through my bits and I just seem to have odd ones. Im struggling to think of a place that would sell them without trying to rob me blind. Found the spigots on the bay for £11 delivered. On a non wheel not, just found pin holes in the first bend of my exhaust rear section. That was put on new when I had it last. Took it off to see if I can bodge it, it was like a puzzle getting it over the rear beam. |

Went for a sealey 3 ton yankee low entry jobbie, looks the biz. Read to many bad things about ally jacks, flexing under load and even breaking. Seems you have to spend mega for a good lightweight jack. I read costco put them up aswell to the £90 mark?

For now yeah, still cant unfree them though
The bodies are spotless (stainless) but the main ring on the front near side wont shift.It needs rasing as the current height is hardly optimal for handling purposes, wishbones are to be near as parrallel to the ground as I can get them. No more low and slow for the purple one
